If you loved The Mission, try The Killing Fields

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Roland Joffé, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Mission, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Killing Fields is

You cover war from the streets of Cambodia until your evacuation order arrives. Then your fixer refuses to leave with you and the rebels roll into Phnom Penh. A seasoned observer notes how the camera lingers on a man who stays behind.
